...and then the mitten kick -- well, now, I guess you're just gonna have to go on to sweaters or something...

...and about KISS: WICKED AWESOME!!! I so love them! I saw them back in '98 in Toledo (much longer story of how I got those tickets in a much longer post later on) and then, when I was working the radio station, met Paul and Gene and talked and...well, put it this way...it's a good thing that we were on a mandatory 3 second delay.

When I was about 3 years old, I was afraid of their face paint in the pictures on the album cover and one of my stepmother's sisters had told me that if you put the record on the turntable and put the needle on and played the record, they were going to jump out of the album and get me. Since then I became more saddened during those MTV years when they didn't paint their faces.

I too am glad that everything is ok in your neck of the woods. About your missing post, it was probably flagged as offensive or something and that's why you can't find it. Did you put something naughty in that post?
